Thoughts on Newcastle Brown clone

[wood&co]

Morning all.

Just received my Newcastle Brown clone all grain recipe kit from Crossmyloof - hoping to get her started at the weekend.

Just a quick question though, the recipe states that no additional hops required (comes with Goldings) but, and here I quote, “25g of Willamette will add a lovely fragrance” - now this sounds delicious so I added some to my basket. However now I’m preparing my recipe it occurs to me that I don’t know if they mean to add in the boil, at flame out, dry hop even? Or anything in between…?!

Does anyone have any experience with these hops and brown ale styles? Or any advice in general?

Much appreciated in advance!!

Hops for Bittering goes on first.
Middle flavours later.
Fragrance last.

I would go flameout or dry with these.

That’s great advice, thanks.

Handy to know that order, and now you’ve said it, it makes perfect sense. Just never thought about it before! Doh!
